Last week, Camara Education officially launched our AI-powered learning programme, bringing together supporters and friends who share our commitment to transforming education in under-resourced schools across Africa.

We extend our heartfelt thank you to Bookstein Projects, all our guests, and our board members who attended for their invaluable support. We are deeply grateful to all our donors, whose generosity makes our work possible and allows us to continue transforming education in under-resourced schools.

At the event, we highlighted the Camara AI-Assistant, a simple yet powerful tool already making a difference in Ethiopia:

  • Runs on low-cost computers that schools already have

  • Built around the local curriculum, ensuring direct relevance for teachers and students

  • Fully functional offline, allowing access in schools without internet connectivity

We are seeking support to:

  • Continue improving the AI-Assistant

  • Upgrade school computer labs

  • Train teachers to use the tool effectively

With international aid declining, private support has never been more important. Every contribution has a direct impact:

  • £50 provides five children with access to the AI-Assistant

  • £500 provides fifty children with access

We invite you to support Camara Education and help ensure that technology reaches every classroom, empowering students and teachers alike.

Reusing Retired IT to Bridge the Digital Divide While Protecting the Planet: Camara Education on World Environment Day 2025

World Environment Day 2025 is a powerful reminder that our actions today shape the world of tomorrow. At Camara Education, we believe that sustainability and social impact should go hand in hand. Our work sits at the intersection of environmental responsibility and digital equity.

Turning E-Waste into Educational Opportunity

Every year, thousands of tonnes of IT equipment are discarded, contributing to the global e-waste crisis. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Through responsible IT Asset Disposition (ITAD), we can extend the life of technology, reduce environmental harm, and create opportunities for others. Each refurbished computer in a school has a positive educational impact on at least 28 students.

Camara Education provides organisations with a secure, ethical, and sustainable ITAD solution. We refurbish decommissioned IT equipment and redirect it where it’s needed most, into classrooms across Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, and Zambia. These devices are not only reused, but reimagined as tools for learning, growth, and empowerment.

The Environmental Benefits of Sustainable ITAD

By choosing Camara Education for your ITAD needs, you contribute directly to:

  • 📉 Reduced e-waste: Devices are reused instead of ending up in landfills or being prematurely recycled.
  • 🔄 Circular economy practices: We extend the lifecycle of IT assets and minimise the environmental impact of electronics.
  • 🌱 Lower carbon emissions: Reuse significantly reduces the need for new device production, which is energy and resource-intensive. 300kg of CO2 in a single laptop is not released.

It’s IT disposal with a difference, one that benefits both the environment and future generations.

Education as a Force for Change

But the impact doesn’t stop at sustainability. Every refurbished device donated through Camara is delivered with training and support, enabling teachers and students in underserved regions to gain the digital skills needed in today’s world.

We work directly with schools to:

  • 💡 Provide digital literacy and ICT skills training for teachers and students
  • 🖥️ Equip classrooms with working, up-to-date computers and technology
  • 🌍 Create sustainable digital ecosystems in low-resource educational settings

In doing so, we’re not just providing equipment, we’re building futures.

A Call to Action for World Environment Day 2025

On this World Environment Day, we invite companies and institutions to rethink how they manage their end-of-life IT. With Camara Education, your old technology can deliver a double impact: protecting the environment and transforming lives.

Whether you’re a sustainability leader, IT manager, or CSR professional, you have the power to make IT disposal a force for good.

👉 Partner with Camara Education, because a better future is one where no child is left offline, and no computer is wasted.

To mark World Environment Day, Teddy Gwadiva, Technical and Training Officer at Camara Education Kenya, joined students and teachers at Kongowea Secondary School for a tree-planting activity. The school received donated computers through Camara Education’s partnership with Dell Technologies, extended learning beyond the classroom by taking part in this hands-on environmental initiative.

Teddy worked side by side with the school community to plant trees around the school grounds, making the day a practical lesson in sustainability.

The event underscored the connection between education, technology, and environmental responsibility. It gave students a chance to see how taking care of the planet fits into building a stronger, smarter future.

The trees planted that day will stand as lasting reminders of care, community, and action on climate.
